Some of the reasons why you've lost battery are out of your control, but knowing which apps are draining it can help your iPhone last until the end of the day.

As Apple continues to upgrade its operating system and line of smartphones, smartwatches, displays, and computers, it's leaving plenty behind in 2026.

In a recent research paper, Google introduced Beyond Zero, a “security model for the AI era” that extends Zero Trust to autonomous AI agents. The new approach moves access decisions from the application level to individual resources and actions, combining static authorization controls with dynamic AI-driven decisions to enable machine-speed enforcement for humans and agents.

Apple is expected to announce several products at its September event next week—including a folding phone—but the iPhone 18 might not be among them. It would be a first for the company.

Audacity 4 has been in the works for some time, and had its own mini controversy last year when an unfortunate redesigned logo started making the rounds. The final version of the new icon isn't nearly as bad as the early rendition that was circulating last October. But more importantly, all the promised improvements to […]

A federal judge temporarily barred an X rival from using the Twitter name, but found that X was likely to have abandoned the “Tweet” trademark and bird logo. The startup has since relaunched as Tweet.app.

It's not quite the "push button; get song" of Suno, but Roland's new Melody Flip tool marks the company's foray into generative AI music. Available as a plug-in for your digital audio workstation (DAW), Melody Flip offers around 250 "Palettes," which are essentially themed collections of musical ideas sorted by genre. You can start from […]

It’s officially the Ternus era at Apple. Tim Cook stepped down as CEO this week, handing the company to former hardware chief John Ternus, whose first memo promised a “huge launch next week” — timing that puts Apple’s next iPhone event on his desk before he’s even settled in. Cook isn’t going far, though: he’s staying on as Executive Chairman, focused on the kind of policy […]

Saying X is “formerly Twitter” in App Store lets Musk block use of Twitter name.

Apple's September 9th launch event could be one of its biggest in years. It will be Apple's first event since John Ternus took over as CEO on September 1st, stepping in for Tim Cook, and will likely feature the first models in Apple's iPhone 18 lineup. That could include the long-rumored foldable "iPhone Ultra," coming […]

Gemini Spark can edit and curate photo albums, create shared collections, turn photos into calendar events, and handle other Google Photos tasks for AI Pro and Ultra subscribers.

Airbnb redesigned its authentication architecture around server driven flows and policy based challenge selection. The new Flexible Authentication system reduced authentication related code by 60%, cut the web client bundle by 100 KB, improved successful authentication by 2.6%, reduced duplicate account creation by 27%, and lowered OTP costs by 11%.

Battlefields in Ukraine are littered with the remnants of drones, which are now firmly established as a critical weapon of modern warfare. But behind all that wreckage, there’s a new gold mine for the defense sector. The data drones generate will far outlast the wars in which they are used to fight, increasingly becoming part…

The popular free audio editor gets a colorful dark mode and granular editing tools.

Open source, commercial, single-hop, multi-hop, mixnet? The array of options is dizzying.

When businesses outgrow spreadsheets and disconnected SaaS tools, the next question is often whether they should buy another application, customize an existing platform, or build a system specifically around their workflows. For many organizations, building custom business software can appear expensive and technically demanding. A development team has to think about authentication, permissions, database models, APIs, user interfaces, background jobs, reporting, audit trails, and deployment. This is where open-source application frameworks can change the equation. Instead of building every foundational capability from scratch, a framework can provide the underlying architecture while developers focus their effort on the business problems that actually differentiate the organization. One example is the Frappe Framework , an open-source web application framework used to build business applications such as ERPNext. But what exactly is Frappe, and why would an organization consider using it for custom enterprise software? What Is Frappe Framework? Frappe is an open-source, Python- and JavaScript-based web application framework designed to make it easier to build database-driven business applications. Rather than being simply a collection of programming utilities, Frappe provides a broader application foundation. It includes capabilities for: Data modeling Authentication Role-based permissions REST APIs Web forms Background jobs Reporting Workflow management Notifications File attachments Activity and audit information User interfaces Database access Application configuration This means a development team can start with an application architecture that already understands many of the requirements common to business software. The important distinction is this: Frappe is a framework for building applications. ERPNext is an application built using that framework. That distinction matters when evaluating Frappe for custom software development. Frappe vs ERPNext Frappe and ERP

A lawsuit claims the policy was stricter on third-party developers than Apple itself.

I recently built a complete IT ticket management system in Power Apps — 9 screens, role-based access, live SLA tracking, and automatic email notifications. The part I want to actually talk about here isn't the UI, it's the SLA engine, because I built it to work without Power Automate , and the trick is simpler than it looks. The problem SLA tracking normally means: a ticket is "Critical" → 60 minute target → somebody needs to know if it's about to breach or already has. The obvious way to do this is a scheduled Power Automate flow that checks every ticket on a timer and flags the ones in trouble. I wanted this app to run on Power Apps collections only — no flow, no external data source — so a scheduled flow wasn't an option. The question was: can you get "live" SLA status without a background job? The trick: recalculate on every read, not on a timer Instead of a flow updating a SLAStatus field periodically, I recalculate it every time the app or a screen is opened, using Now() against the stored due date: \ UpdateIf( colTickets, Status <> "Resolved" && Status <> "Closed", { SLAStatus: If( Now() > DueDate, "Breached", DateDiff(Now(), DueDate, TimeUnit.Minutes) <= SLAMinutes * 0.2, "At Risk", "On Track" ) } ); UpdateIf(colTickets, Status = "Resolved" || Status = "Closed", {SLAStatus: "Met"}) \ \ This runs in App.OnStart , at the top of every screen's OnVisible , and behind a manual "Refresh SLA" button. The At Risk threshold is 20% of the SLA window remaining — so a Critical ticket (60 min target) goes At Risk with 12 minutes left; a Low ticket (1440 min / 24 hrs) goes At Risk with 4.8 hours left. The honest tradeoff: this only updates when someone has the app open. A ticket breaching at 2am with nobody looking won't trigger anything until the next visit. For a real production deployment I'd pair this with a scheduled flow for after-hours detection — but for a demo, an internal tool with regular traffic, or anything where "eventually consistent within the next visit"
